Dead Man of Wall Street Doubles His Wealth in Prison
Alphonse J. Stephani, the so called Dead Man of Wall Street, has seen his fortune nearly double while confined in Sing Sing and later in a state hospital. His brokered investments, aided by an agent, grew from stock and bonds to about forty one thousand dollars, with dividends reinvested and holdings largely in New York Central and Pennsylvania Railroad shares. The vault box containing his wealth was opened after legal battles, and heirs and guardians fought over control though Stephani remained key to the safety deposit box access.
